No post yesterday - played for about 10 hours and then had to go to bed! It was terrible - made about 50cents in the 10 hours. Started the day with $315 - went over $400 then below $300 then back to $316. I think I must have played really bad to go from $400 to under $300 at the stakes I play!
The day started good - 3rd in a 30p $10 SNG for $50, won a $10 limit 10p SNG for another $50, then an double up in OH8 so over $400. Then it all goes tits up - lost about 4 10p SNGs and the rest in cash games - did the usual - about 4 screens open at once and playing too many hands trying to get it back.
Today has been a bit better - started off bad losing 2 $5multis and a $2 multi then 2nd in a 10p limit SNG and about even in OH8 and NLHE cash games. I might have to start doing the limit SNGs - not the game I want to get good at but might steady out the bankroll - it seems fairly straightforward to get at least in the top 3 - done 4 this weekend and have placed 1x32.
A few hands I remember from the cash game:-
AK - probably a bad play - I'm up to $25 in 0.1-0.15 cash game - some girl (well girls name) is going all in every hand - she has about $15 - she does it as usual - I call in late position she has Q10. She catches the 10 on river. Probably should have mucked - no need to play the hand without at least a big pair - it was tournament play calling with that - can get her in a better spot in an unraised or standard raised pot - such as the next one.......
KJ - I'm back up to $15 or so - she makes it $2 (has stopped going all in every hand now that has chips) - I call (only caller) - I wouldn't usually with KJ for 13 blinds but I know can get it all in on flop - I push all in on Jhi flop and she calls with some absolute trash which gave her a gutshot - thankfully didn't come!
OH8 - As2hKh5c - flop the nut low and flush (heart) draw - get all my $20 or so in against a player who has a worse heart draw and a worse low. I spent about 1 hour waiting for such a hand - I think this is how to play now - just wait for a hand I can't lose - yesterday I just played far too many hands and too aggressive with them.
4 episodes in a row of High Stakes Poker on tonight - great show - seen all the episodes about 5 times but still good to watch. I want to go and play with them but the big blind is more than my bankroll in that show so cant make it for a while. Sammy Fahra is the best one - he just doesn't care - calling more than I make in a month with 10c3c for example!
Closing roll $332.

Hehe, I love High Stakes Poker too:)
Sad with your $100 loss, but your bankroll still increase, impressive!
Btw; I would have called her too with AK
I have only played poker for 1 year
come to think of it i'd probably call with AK again too - lol - depends what mood I am in!
Thanks for comments - they are encouraging me to play well -hope you doing good.
